they had started doing that this year, too, in a way that the romney campaign cannot. republicans have criticized romney for spending a lot of time in high-dollar fund-raisers, taking time away from the campaign trail, but he has to do that because he doesn't have the connections with the grassroots that barack obama has had. however, the romney campaign had a fund-raising boost after that debate performance the other night, fred. >> particularly, this kind of money will help in those campaign ads in those swing states, florida being one of them. colorado, ohio, virginia? >> yeah, that's right. and think about this, the romney campaign didn't run television ads during the democratic national convention or the republican national convention. a cardinal rule of politics is when you go on tv, you stay on tv. the romney campaign broke that and it hurt them in the polls heading into that debate. however, as that new yorker cover that's coming out next week sort of captured the zeitgeist, he had a strong debate performance. his campaign says they raised $12 million in the co
